International Lisp Conference, to be held in Reno, Nevada, in
collocation with SPLASH 2010.

This year's program consists of tutorials for beginners and advanced
users, a selection of prominent invited speakers, an excellent

Scope:
~~~~~~

Lisp is one of the greatest ideas from computer science and a major
influence for almost all programming languages and all sufficiently
complex software applications.

The International Lisp Conference is a forum for the discussion of
Lisp and, in particular, the design, implementation and application of
any of the Lisp dialects.  We encourage everyone interested in Lisp to
participate.
